I managed to snag a pretty good picture of a chipmunk in my back yard doing what looked like a superhero landing on a piece of quartz XD Here's the resulting print from that pic! You can clearly see some issues with the gold extruding, resulting in many spaces in between lines. Thee are caused by improper retraction settings. Switching from Cura to Prusa slicer to create these 3d prints has been a great tool, but I'm struggling to find what settings equate to what I'm used to in Cura. My next multicolor print failed due to these poor retraction settings. The filament would be pulled up too far, cool down, be pulled forward, heat up, and repeat until the tip of the filament in the printer expanded into a hard blob and failed to extrude anything else. I can't wait to get this profile for these multicolor prints dialed IN. They're getting easier to handle, and I'm getting a feeling for the cool artistic choices I'm able to make when it comes to making colors pop in these things! Can't wait for more!!
